Ingredients

  • 250g halloumi cheese cut into cubes
  • 2 tbsp rose harissa paste
  • 3 tbsp wildflower honey
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 cup shelled pistachios crushed
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1/2 tsp coriander seeds toasted
  • 1 zucchini sliced into ribbons
  • fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

1
Begin by preparing the glaze: in a small bowl, whisk together the rose harissa, wildflower honey, and smoked paprika until smooth.
2
Set aside.
3
Thread the halloumi cubes onto bamboo skewers, alternating with ribbons of zucchini to provide a fresh, crisp texture contrast.
4
Preheat your grill or heavy-bottomed cast-iron skillet to medium-high heat.
5
Brush the skewers generously with the honey-harissa glaze.
6
Grill the skewers for 2-3 minutes per side until the halloumi develops a deep golden-brown char and becomes soft.
7
While the skewers are warm, quickly toss the crushed pistachios, sesame seeds, and toasted coriander seeds together to create a coarse Dukkah topping.
8
Once plated, drizzle any remaining glaze over the skewers and scatter the Dukkah mixture liberally across the top.
9
Garnish with torn fresh mint leaves for a bright, cooling finish that cuts through the rich, savory depth of the seared cheese.
